Hey Y'alls,
So while I'm waiting for my Bronco to come in I'm planning out the audio upgrade for the base system but I'm not sure which route I should go for the amp configuration.
So far I'm planning on Polk DB402's for the dash/rear speakers and Polk DB6502 component woofers for the kick panels. As far as a sub goes I'm not too concerned with it right off the bat, but I do have a JL powered sub in another car already that I'm planning to wire in at some point so for the amp(s) I'm only concerned about the 6 main speakers.
Since the 4" speakers have different RMS ratings from the woofers (45w vs 100w) I'm trying to decide between going with 2 4-channel 50wpc amps and use one for each of the 4" speakers individually but bridge 2 channels on the second amp for each of the woofers, or getting one single 4-channel amp with 75-100wpc, using 2 channels for the woofers, but splitting the other 2 channels between the 4 4" speakers so they're not getting too much power.
Are there any downsides with going for the single amp option aside from the fader not working quite right? Or would that be an okay compromise to save a bit of money on the upgrade?
Thanks a bunch, I appreciate it!
